Radical cleric Abu Qatada has won his appeal against deportation to Jordan.
The European Court of Human Rights said that the preacher could not be removed from the UK because of Jordan's record on torture.
The Strasbourg judges accepted that the UK's deal with Jordan over treatment of deported suspects was sound.
Abu Qatada has fought for six years against deportation, saying he faced trial based on evidence extracted by torture.
The British government can make a final attempt to appeal the judgement before it becomes binding in three months' time.
